, not long after attending Simon’s birthday banquet, the grand madam came to Arsene.

“Mother! I would have gone to you if you had called me.”

“It’s quite a distance.
It may seem close, but it’s quite a long way to travel.
My son, it seems like your face doesn’t look too good.
How are you?”

“Yes.
As you requested, I ate well and slept well.”

“That’s wonderful.”

Grand Madam Sirius laughed brightly.

Although the proposal Gilmus laid out to her was not bright at all.

‘Please break Abella’s engagement with the Duke of Arsene.’

‘What do you mean, Count Gilmus? Although it is said to be a political marriage between the nobles, the promise is sacred.
 Besides, there is no reason for Sirius to disqualify Lady Abella.’

‘But, doesn’t Grand Madam owe me something? So this time…’

‘You.
How long do you think that weakness will remain a weakness?’

‘Grand Madam Sirius!’

‘I can reveal the secret with my own hands.
Once revealed, it is no longer a weakness.
Until now, I have been dancing to your tune……’

‘Is it because of the Duke? And this time again, you will be moving for the Duke.’

As if a snake was crawling all over her body, Grand Madam Sirius trembled with disgust.
The reason she had come alone, without her husband, was because she had to tell Arsene an important story.

Arsene liked Abella a lot.
That was the fact that the Grand Madam who gave birth to Arsene knew better than anyone else.
It wouldn’t be easy for her to persuade him to let go of Abella.
She must understand Arsene’s mind and dig into a place of weakness in order to persuade the child.

Having finished her thoughts, Grand Madam Sirius swallowed her sigh.

It was not that she didn’t know what Count Gilmus was aiming for.
The firstborn of the Count Gilmus family had been thrown into the marriage market these days.
It must be a plan to marry Abella and his firstborn.

It was the old customs of the aristocrats.

And Grand Madam Sirius no longer wanted Arsene to get involved in such a thing.

Arsene needed to get away from Abella and live his life.

Grand Madam Sirius spoke gently.

“Son, if you have time, how about having lunch and chatting with me?”

Arsene tilted his head at the more gentle voice but nodded.

“Yes, mother.”

Their peace didn’t last for long.
